La propriété — Hazelhurst
Hazelhurst is a no-nonsense three-star on the north side, close enough to O'Connell Street to walk into the action but far enough to dodge the late-night rowdiness. The lobby feels like a functional pitstop—vinyl flooring, a reception desk with a stack of tourist leaflets, and the faint smell of breakfast toast. It suits budget-conscious travellers who want clean beds and a solid central location without paying for frills; you won't get character, but you will get a decent night's sleep and a full Irish breakfast that sets you up for a day of walking.
Chroniques de Dublin
Dublin began as a Viking settlement around 841 AD, growing from a tidal pool (Dubh Linn) into a walled medieval port under Norman control. The 18th century brought Georgian elegance—wide streets, red-brick townhouses, and grand squares like Merrion Square—but much of that architecture was lost to 20th-century redevelopment and the Celtic Tiger's boom. Today the city wears its literary heritage proudly—Joyce, Yeats, Beckett—and its pub culture remains the social spine, with a younger, tech-driven population reshaping the docks into Silicon Docks.

Guide complet de Dublin →Meilleurs mois
May and June offer long evenings (sunset after 9pm), the driest and mildest weather on average, and the city isn't yet packed with summer crowds. September matches summer temperatures but with quieter streets and cheaper rates.
Peak / Festival surge
July and August are peak: the city fills with tourists for the Galway Races spillover and the St. Patrick's Festival (though that's March—July is pure holiday season). Hotel prices can jump 30-40% over June; book well ahead if you're coming now.
La saison des épaules
Late April and early October are prime shoulder months: April has the Dublin City Soul Festival, October has cheaper rooms and manageable weather, with daytime highs around 12-15°C and fewer queues at the Guinness Storehouse.
Météo & Emballage
Dublin's climate is famously fickle—you can get four seasons in one day, with sudden showers even in July. Pack a waterproof jacket with a hood and a warm layer (a light sweater or fleece); leave the umbrella, as wind usually shreds it.
Briefing de la ville — Dublin
- The Luas Green Line extension to Broombridge is fully operational now, making it easier to reach the city centre from Hazelhurst's area via Connolly Station.
- Dublin's new bike-sharing scheme (Bleeperbike) has expanded into the north city centre, giving visitors a cheap way to cover ground; expect dockless bikes parked on pavements near the hotel.
- The Temple Bar district has introduced a late-night levy and stricter noise controls from June 2026, so expect quieter evenings but expect earlier pub closing times in that zone.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Hazelhurst, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the 3rd or 4th floor at the rear of the building. These floors are high enough to avoid most street-level noise but still within easy reach via the lift, and the rear orientation backs onto residential gardens rather than Stillorgan Road.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the 1st floor facing the front (Stillorgan Road side). The road is a busy dual carriageway, and low-floor rooms will catch the most traffic noise, especially during morning and evening rush hours. Also skip any room directly next to the lift shaft on any floor — the lift was retrofitted into a narrow Georgian conversion and can be audible.
Best views
The best views are from rear-facing rooms on floors 3 or 4, looking out over the suburban gardens and occasional glimpses of the Dublin Mountains on a clear day. Front-facing rooms overlook Stillorgan Road, which is functional but not scenic — you'll watch traffic and a bus stop.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 and 4 are the quietest at this hotel. They sit above the main street-level noise and are less likely to pick up footfall from the ground-floor bar or restaurant. The 4th floor also benefits from being under the roof, with fewer rooms on the corridor.
🔊 Noise notes
Stillorgan Road (N11) is a main arterial route into Dublin city centre. Expect continuous traffic noise from 7am–8pm, with quieter periods late night and early morning. The hotel's own bar can generate low-level noise until last orders (typically 11pm weekdays, later at weekends). The lift is a modern retrofit but can hum or clunk — especially if your room shares a wall with the shaft.
Insider tips
1. Parking is limited to a small forecourt — arrive before 4pm on weekdays to secure a space, or use the nearby Stillorgan Village Q-Park (5 mins walk) which is cheaper than the hotel's own parking. 2. At check-in, politely ask for a quiet rear-facing room; the staff are accustomed to requests and the rear block is noticeably quieter than the front.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Principales attractions à Dublin
💡 Enter from the Fusiliers' Arch side and walk clockwise – the quieter eastern end has fewer tourists and more shade.
💡 Skip the guided tour – the free areas cover the best bits. The library's roof terrace has good city views and is often overlooked.
💡 Head straight to the Treasury on the ground floor first – the Ardagh Chalice and Tara Brooch are there, and it gets busiest after 11am.
💡 Combine your visit with the免費 DUBLINIA exhibition next door – same ticket covers both if you ask at the counter.
💡 Book online at least two days ahead – same-day tickets sell out by 10am. Go on the first tour of the day to avoid crowds.
